Some Projects and A Tutorial~

I've been working on a few projects and I made a tutorial!  Imagine that.  I figured most of the design team requirements is the capability of tutorials so I might as well give it a go :) I decided to try some different things and these are what I created.

Altered Altoid Mint Tin -



I made this with Prima's Fairy Belle collection and some flowers that was in my stash. I tied a sage colored ribbon around it from a collection that I bought at Prima's parking lot sale 2 years ago. I really like how it came.  The pic is my granddaughter Aelyn when she was a Fairy for Halloween wow at least 7 years ago!

Flower Ball or bomb I've heard used made with Fairy Belle once again  This sucker took 76 individual flowers layered into three, very tedious but I liked it.  Most definitely not for everyone :)




I also made this altered hat box with the fairy line once again.  I love this line!  In case you didn't notice, not only do I love glitter I also love flowers and butterflies.









And now for my tutorial!  I show how to make the flowers that I used in the above flower ball project.  I hope you enjoy it -
